* feat(mosh): default bundled client to MoshCatty releases
Wire Netcatty packaging and npm run dev to pull pure Rust mosh-client
binaries from binaricat/MoshCatty (moshcatty-* tags), document the cutover,
and mark the old Cygwin Windows fetch path as legacy-only.
* fix(mosh): accept pure MoshCatty packages (exe-only, no dlls/terminfo)
Align fetch/packaging with MoshCatty pure-Rust releases: require only
mosh-client[.exe], treat Cygwin dll bags and terminfo as optional legacy
layout. Document moshcatty-0.1.1 (ConPTY Ctrl+C + static MSVC CRT).
* refactor(mosh): drop Cygwin legacy; MoshCatty-only pipeline
Remove FluentTerminal/mosh-bin fallbacks, build-mosh C++ CI, and
dll/terminfo runtime helpers. Fetch accepts only moshcatty-* pure
binaries; packaging ships a single mosh-client per platform.
* docs: align ET checklist and et README with MoshCatty-only mosh
Update mosh template references after removing Cygwin build pipeline and
legacy fallbacks. Point ET packaging notes at fetch-mosh / MoshCatty
instead of deleted build-mosh-binaries workflow.
* docs(mosh): require MoshCatty 0.1.2+ for Linux glibc floors
Codex review vs main: defaulting to MoshCatty Linux binaries built on
ubuntu-latest required GLIBC 2.34, above Netcatty's package floors
(x64 2.28 / arm64 2.31). Document the floors, prefer moshcatty-0.1.2+,
and drop trailing whitespace in the design note. Upstream MoshCatty
release CI now builds in almalinux:8 / debian:bullseye with assert.
* fix(mosh): reject MoshCatty releases below 0.1.2
Codex re-review: docs alone still allowed MOSH_BIN_RELEASE=moshcatty-0.1.0/0.1.1,
which produce packages that fail to start on Netcatty's Linux glibc floors.
Validate the minimum tag in resolve and fetch, skip pre-0.1.2 when picking
latest, and cover the reject path in unit tests.
* fix(mosh): pin MoshCatty owner and reject floor prereleases
Codex review vs main (P2):
- Always default MOSH_BIN owner/repo to binaricat/MoshCatty; do not
inherit fork owner from GITHUB_REPOSITORY in resolve or fetch.
- Treat moshcatty-X.Y.Z-rcN as below final X.Y.Z so pins like
moshcatty-0.1.2-rc1 cannot bypass the glibc floor.
* fix(mosh): accept build metadata in MoshCatty release tags
TAG_RE rejected '+' so moshcatty-0.1.2+build.1 failed validation even
though the version parser and isAtLeastMinRelease accepted it. Align
the regex and require a successful semver parse.
* Bundle mosh-client via CI build pipeline
Add a GitHub Actions workflow that builds a static, distro-portable
mosh-client for linux-x64, linux-arm64, darwin-universal (arm64+x86_64)
from upstream mobile-shell/mosh source, plus a pinned win32-x64 binary
sourced from FluentTerminal (GPL-3.0). Releases attach SHA256SUMS so
scripts/fetch-mosh-binaries.cjs can verify and pull the right binary
into resources/mosh/<platform-arch>/ during npm run pack.
electron-builder.config.cjs gains a moshExtraResources() helper that
adds the binary to extraResources only when present on disk, keeping
local dev packages working without bundled mosh.
terminalBridge.cjs now exports bundledMoshClient() and prefers the
bundled static client over whatever the system mosh wrapper would
resolve via PATH (via the MOSH_CLIENT env var). The Windows branch
throws a clear error pointing at Settings instead of silently falling
back to a literal "mosh.exe" string when no wrapper is installed.
This is Phase 1 — Phase 2 (follow-up) replaces the FluentTerminal
Windows binary with an in-CI Cygwin static build and adds a Node-side
mosh-server bootstrap so Mosh works out-of-the-box on Windows.

* Phase 2: Node-side Mosh handshake (no Perl wrapper required)
Reimplement what the upstream Mosh Perl wrapper does in pure Node:
spawn `ssh [user@]host -- mosh-server new`, sniff the byte stream
for `MOSH CONNECT <port> <key>`, then spawn `mosh-client` locally
with MOSH_KEY in the environment.
The new electron/bridges/moshHandshake.cjs module exposes the parser,
sniffer, and command builders as pure functions so they can be unit
tested without spawning real ssh. terminalBridge.startMoshSession now
prefers this path whenever a bare mosh-client (bundled, explicit, or
system) and ssh (in-box OpenSSH on Win10 1809+, system everywhere
else) are both detectable. The legacy path through the system mosh
Perl wrapper is preserved as a fallback so users with custom mosh
setups don't regress.
Auth is delegated to system ssh, so keys, agent, ssh_config, and
known_hosts all keep working. Password / 2FA need a controlling TTY
which the bootstrap doesn't provide; affected users keep the legacy
wrapper path until interactive UI lands.
Tests:
- moshHandshake.test.cjs (20 tests) — parser corner cases, command
builders, sniffer split-chunk handling, ring-buffer trim, exec
resolver
- terminalBridge.bareMoshClient.test.cjs (4 tests) — explicit-path
basename gating
317 → 341 passing tests; lint clean.

* Phase 3: in-CI Cygwin Windows build + visible PTY handshake
Phase 3a — in-CI Cygwin Windows build
- scripts/build-mosh/build-windows.sh builds mosh-client.exe from
upstream mobile-shell/mosh source inside Cygwin, then walks the
cygcheck import graph to bundle every required Cygwin DLL
(cygwin1.dll, cygcrypto, cygprotobuf, cygncursesw, etc) into a
tar.gz alongside the exe.
- The `build-mosh-binaries` workflow swaps the FluentTerminal-pinned
fetch job for a real Cygwin build (windows-latest + cygwin-install-
action). fetch-windows.sh is preserved as an emergency fallback but
no longer wired into the matrix.
- fetch-mosh-binaries.cjs unpacks the tar.gz into resources/mosh/
win32-x64/ so mosh-client.exe sits next to its DLLs.
- mosh-extra-resources.cjs ships the entire win32-x64/ dir
(exe + DLL bundle) into Resources/mosh/, so the packaged installer
runs on a stock Windows host with no Cygwin install.
Phase 3b — visible PTY handshake (password / 2FA prompts)
- terminalBridge.startMoshSession now spawns ssh inside node-pty so
the user sees and can answer password / 2FA / known-hosts prompts
in their terminal. When `MOSH CONNECT` is sniffed from the byte
stream, session.proc is atomically swapped from the ssh PTY to a
freshly-spawned mosh-client PTY. The MOSH CONNECT line itself is
redacted from the visible output.
- writeToSession / resizeSession read session.proc lazily, so input
arriving after the swap goes to mosh-client without extra wiring.
- The ZMODEM sentry is recreated for the new proc since its
writeToRemote closure captured the previous handle.
- Removes the earlier non-PTY child_process.spawn handshake — the
PTY-based one supersedes it.
Phase 3c — win32-arm64 deferred
- Cygwin's arm64 port has no stable cygwin1.dll release yet, so we
do not attempt an arm64 Windows build. arm64 Windows installs fall
through to the legacy `mosh` wrapper path that the bridge already
handles. Documented in the workflow.

* Allow branch/PR pushes to test the mosh-binaries workflow
Mirrors the build-packages workflow change in #868: any push or PR
that touches the mosh build pipeline triggers the matrix (artifacts
only, no release), while only `mosh-bin-*` tag pushes (or an
explicit workflow_dispatch with release_tag) publish a release.
`paths` filter keeps unrelated commits from running this expensive
workflow (~30min for the Cygwin leg). Concurrency group cancels
superseded branch/PR builds; tag builds use a unique group so a
follow-up commit can't kill an in-progress release.
Release job's `if:` enforces the same rule independently — even if
the trigger gets re-broadened, branches/PRs can't leak a release.
